Abstract

This paper analyses the findings in relation to safety of research on the experience of cycle facilities introduced in parts of the Greater Nottingham area since the early 1980s. As well as drawing on the monitoring studies by JMP Consultants for the TRL it discusses in particular the findings of research carried out at Nottingham University on the attitudes of cyclists and non-cyclists. It shows how, on balance, special facilities are valued as enhancing cyclists' safety, despite a number of detailed criticisms. It then discusses these findings in relation to general traffic planning as well as cycle policy.
